Best 3D Printing Deals at the Microsoft Store

If you’re looking for a Christmas gift idea with a “wow” factor … well … the Microsoft Online Store has you covered. 3D printing is arguably the hottest new technology, and for around $950, you can snag a MakerBot Digitizer Desktop 3D Scanner at the Microsoft Store.

While that may not sound cheap, it’s around $450 less than the original price of this 3D printing technology.

Plus, the MakerBot — owned by Stratasys (SSYS) — desktop scanner is optimized for 3D printing and boasts sophisticated software, as the hot gadget is “intended for experimenters and visionaries who are ready to blaze a trail into 3D creation,” according to the Microsoft Store description.
